It was the social event of the season, Detroit s version of the Hamptons polo party. The second marriage of disgraced former mayor and ex-con Kwame Kilpatrick.
It was a ticket every self-respecting fast man would kill for a wedding at the Historic Little Rock Baptist Church and a reception at the Hotel St. Regis on West Grand Boulevard.

Hall said the indictment will detail the bribery allegations involving Spivey, whom he said has been cooperating with the U.S. Attorney s Office and other authorities for the past 15 months trying to resolve it. ....
